“Last nights playoff outfit is all about BOBA!Speakin of last night, huge team effort and crazyyy environment at Scotiabank thanks to the fans!! I lived off boba in high school and would have boba wars (think laser tag but w tapioca pearls). Some of my close friends cant go one day without drinkin it @jaychou lol.”
